Snagtag Marks the Spot - Snagtag allows you tag anything you see or hear and push that content to your Snagtag inbox for immediate or future access. HOW IT WORKS: See it. Snag it. View it. Any time you see an “Snagtag”, a word or phrase preceded by an asterisk (e.g. *BeHappy, *PlayLikeAChampion, *LoveIsAllYouNeed ) enter it into the Snagtag app and have the content associated with that Snagtag placed into your Snagtag inbox for immediate or future access. EXAMPLES: - “Snagtag” a radio or TV commercial or program and get a great offer or interesting content: • You hear on the radio “Snagtag ‘KENZ’ to download today’s program” • “Snagtag ‘TodaysDeals’ to get 50% off while supplies last” - “Snagtag” a real estate sign or any “For Sale” sign and get more information regarding the item for sale: • You drive by a car that displays “*BuyMyCar”. You enter the Snagtag and get information about that specific car. • You drive by a beautiful home that displays “*Prudential302”. You enter the Snagtag and get information about that specific house. - “Snagtag” a sign in a store and get current offers for that store: • As you enter the Polo clothing store and you see a sign that reads “*PoloToday”. You enter this Snagtag and get special in store deals for that day. - “Snagtag” a person who displays their Snagtag on a shirt, a hat, a name tag or even in a tattoo, and find out what that person wants you to know about them: • You walk by an interesting looking person who has written on their shirt “*LovingLife”. You enter the Snagtag and see their favorite photos, or quotes, or videos, or a webpage with links to all of these. THERE’S MORE?: Once you’ve tagged something and put it into your inbox, the owner of that Snagtag can send you additional content related to the item you tagged in the form of a “Follow-up”. - Example - You Snagtag “*BestDealsEver” to get 25% off of an item. Hours or days later you receive a follow-up for a “Two for one” coupon. To access “Follow-up” click on the follow-up icon (colored oval with a # in it) to see related content. If you don’t want follow-up offers, don’t click on the follow-up icon or you can turn off or delete the inbox item and never receive additional information from the Snagtag owner again. CREATE YOUR OWN Snagtag: Create your own Snagtag in the mobile app. It is simple, takes 1 minute, and your Snagtags are free. Once you’ve created your own Snagtag, display it and start driving people to your passion!

Everyone says "we should hang out sometime" and then nobody plans anything. GO is built for the part everyone skips: actually going. BROWSE WHAT'S HAPPENING NEAR YOU Real events posted by real people close by - a sunrise hike, a boat day, a pickup game, a study group. Every event shows the date, where to meet, how many spots are left, what to bring, and who else is going. You know what you're walking into before you commit. JOIN IN ONE TAP Tap "I'm in" and you're on the list. No group text chain, no back-and-forth about who's actually coming. Hosts can approve people first if they want to keep it smaller. EVERY EVENT GETS A GROUP CHAT Join an event and you're in the chat with everyone going. Sort out the carpool, split the gas, figure out who's bringing what, and it's all still there for the next one. HOST YOUR OWN Post something in a couple of minutes. Set the day, the spot, how many people, what to bring. Make it open to anyone, friends only, or approve people yourself. Repeating events keep the same group chat week after week. FIND PEOPLE WORTH KNOWING Browse people nearby who like the same things you do, with shared interests and skill levels shown up front, so you're matched on what you'd actually do together, not just who's closest. EARN IT BY SHOWING UP Badges and streaks come from attending, not from scrolling. The people who turn up are the ones the app rewards. BUILT TO BE SAFE Everyone verifies their identity when they sign up, so you know the people you're meeting are real and over 18. Any post, profile, message or event can be reported, and anyone can be blocked instantly. Reports are reviewed every day. GO is free, and it's for people 18 and over. Utah first. More coming soon. Together as a family, lets revolutionize the way we use "social" media
